WACCM with CAM5 physics for pre-industrial conditions

[deepashree_dutta@student_unsw_edu_au]

Hi all,

Is there a predefined component set to run WACCM with CAM5 physics for pre-industrial conditions using data ocean (F)?

Since I couldn't find any, I created a user-defined compset as:
./create_newcase -case ~/CAM5_WACCM_PI -user_compset 1850_CAM5%WCCM_CLM40%SP_CICE%PRES_DOCN%DOM_RTM_SGLC_SWAV -res f19_g16 -mach gadi

I could create the case followed by a successful test run for 5 days. But I was wondering if it's is the best way to do this.
I would appreciate any suggestions, thank you!

There is no compset. WACCM with CAM5 physics is not a supported or defined model configuration, although a number of papers were published using development versions.

Hi Mike,
Thanks for your reply!
Does this mean an user defined component set using CAM5 will not work?

A user-defined compset should work. I forgot that there is a B1850W5CN compset in cesm1.2.2. Just make sure your atm_in namelist is the same as for the B compset when you switch to data ocean.

Thanks a lot Mike!
